247-He Is Doing Something Behind ..
My mom hadn't shut up about how cute we looked, but I didn't question Zane for now'. I caught myself
eyeing her to zip her mouth at times, and Zane caught me. Sadly, there was only one bed in that suite,
and I was so tired that I also thought it was good that I just slept the tonight.
Zane had to leave and take care of pack matters and deal with Flynn. I fell asleep and woke up early
this morning. I was feeling much better since they gave me vampire blood medicine. Now that I knew I
was doing well, I decided to go to work and see Maura.
Her thoughts had not left my mind during this whole mess. I was worried about her and her mother.
There was this fear in my heart that I couldn't seem to shake off-what would happen to her if I didn't
make it out in time?
Who will help her and her mother?
Although I didn't have many medicines left, I was planning to give her one after I got the bottle from my
mother. Ever since she found out Zane and I were dating, she has decided to nag me again regarding
my medicines and how I need to not miss them.
When I left for work, she was still sleeping. And I didn't bother waking her up. I was wondering what
Pamela would be thinking about our night out, since it was not usual for us.
However, the moment I stepped into the kitchen and found the two ladies, Maura jumped at me and
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthugged me so tightly that I swore she was going to choke me to death.
'Oh My God! Are you okay?'1 She broke the hug and started checking me out.
*1 am fine," I answered in bewilderment, looking at Pamela and then at Maura.
'I got so scared yesterday." Maura was holding my hands and not letting me go when Pamela stepped
ahead and gently patted my shoulder.
'I am so glad you were found in time." She gave me a genuine smile, making me realize I wasn't alone.
I can't believe Flynn, for a moment, made me think nobody would want me or look for me. But here, I
had so many people worried about me.
'I will quickly take this order and then return to you girls. Don't gossip without me, okay?" Pamela gave
us a playful pout before rushing out of the kitchen. Now that it was Maura and me in the kitchen, I found
her looking hopeful.
'I was worried about you,* she said again, dragging a stool for me and eyeing me to sit.
’No! I will sit on the floor with you," I told her, refusing to let her sit alone, libel didn't believe in us taking
breaks, so he never allowed more than one stool in the kitchen.
‘Now tell me, how do you know what happened to me?” I asked her, my eyes watching her face with so
many questions in my mind.
"Fortunately, I was the witness of it," she pouted and looked genuinely sad, "I am saying that because
otherwise, nobody would have guessed where you went,’ she then explained, and it made sense.
‘I am so sorry for traumatizing you." I joked with her before I held her hand and sighed. "You and Reign
are the best," I said, and she frowned a little.
’Rei—gn?" she asked in confusion.
"Oh! My bad. The girl from yesterday, I believe you two called Maddox, right?" I inquired of her. Her
expressions were a bit befuddling.
I don’t know if she forgot or if she reported it to Maddox alone, but I know for a fact that Reign also saw
me getting dragged into Flynn's car, and she was the one who informed him. So maybe Maura also told
him?
‘I didn't inform Alpha King Maddox. I told Alpha King Zane about it,' she said, making me clear my
throat and then uncomfortably shift in my spot.
'You told Zane?" I asked, and she nodded confidently. I don't think she had a reason to lie to me, but
then why did Zane act like he did not know I was being kidnapped?
‘Oh!" I frowned.
"Who found you yesterday?" Now that I have mentioned it, she is curious to know as well.
’Maddox did. He took me to the hospital and stayed with me." I lacked energy and enthusiasm. Not
because I wasn't thankful to Maddox, but now that Maura confirmed Zane knew, I was a bit
uncomfortable remembering how Zane acted cluelessly upon arrival in the hospital.
’Oh!" Even she looked lost now.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBut it is fine. It doesn't matter who found me. At least I was saved." I forced a smile onto my lips and
patted the back of her hand in the reassurance that I was not worried.
Pamela had finished taking the order, so she walked back into the kitchen and looked at us two, smiling
at us.
"So, where did Zane take your mother last night?" she asked, weirdly passing a quick glance to Maura,
who turned to me as if she were questioning me.
’He had booked a hotel suite for us. It is not that he thought your home wouldn't be comfortable enough
for me. He just wanted to make sure I remained safe," I said, getting a weird reaction from the two.
The way Pamela was only looking at Maura when I was answering her was odd. It was more like she
didn't want to know herself; she was trying to tell Maura that we didn't stay at her place.
"So, he stayed there with you two?" The look Pamela was giving me was kind of deceiving. It was
almost like she was trying to be involved and happy for me, but not entirely.
’No! He went back to his home. It was only me and my mother. Why? Did something happen?" I asked
her after curiosity kicked in.
Maura silently got up to prepare the order while Pamela stepped closer to me with a creepy smirk on
her lips.
‘I was wondering how he didn't call the girl he loves to fuck because he doesn't have time but didn't
bother wasting his whole day with you." Her comment was like a stab to my heart and a slap to my ego.
What the heck was it about people trying to tell me Zane has someone he has been seeing behind my
back?
